Abstract
Punch presses are the primary source for punching round and irregular shaped
holes in flat sheet metal stock. This video examines the machine types that
perform punching, such as the single-station and turret punch press, as well
as the multi-purpose ironworker. The main emphasis of this videotape is the
versatile turret punch press and its tooling. Operations such as nibbling are
covered along with a look at special punch press tooling that includes the wilson
wheel, multi-tools, and special rotary adapters that permit the punch and die
to be rotated radially. Also explored are the accessories that, when incorporated
with the turret punch press, enable it to perform a greater variety of work.
These accessories include a plasma cutting torch, a laser cutting attachment,
and automated material loading and unloading equipment.
